Well. I fitted an entirely new LED headlamp! The beam is not biased - meaning it produces horizontal line - and it's comfortably below the beam height that I've read up for the MOT. During that research I discovered that a number of manufacturers have released bikes with horizontal, unbiased light beams and it is detailed in the documentation also...
My MOT is not due for another 6 months. I'm intrigued to see what response, if any.
But really, that effing OEM candle is shocking. It's crap. I appreciate that some modifications can be a hazard, including lighting modifications. The headlamp I fitted isn't one of them... there's no question it's acceptable lighting. I have been able to adjust it to a good height. The beam is precise and not a washout like some of those bloody 'souped up' cars I'm sure we've all seen. This headlight is made to be a headlight. I love it and feel a lot safer for it.

Have you fitted one of the aftermarket led units available on Ebay?
I did start out with an LED replacement in the OEM headlight. Actually it was good, once I sorted the overheating issue. I bought the rather expensive sol2.be item, but since found a dual set of the same item for half the price
But I now see the LED headlamp I bought is another 50 USD less than when I bought mine!! So they're about £120 now. I think that's damned good and there are no overheating problems, the lighting is superb.
